A few notes on what has been going on in the bowls world since our last update:

SPLBC
Our board met by ZOOM video conference on March 31 to deal with some urgent issues wrt the COVID 19 crisis. The board is hopeful that we will be able open the club later in the summer for a shortened bowling season. However until such time as the crisis is resolved and restrictions are eased, we will not be bowling.
We have made the following decisions:
• The club will remain closed until further notice
• The spring meeting which was scheduled for May 11 has been postponed . No new date has been set.
• The Open House which was scheduled for June 7 has been cancelled
• All corporate bookings for this year have been cancelled. No new bookings will be accepted.
We are working with Ken Olsvik, our turf consultant/contractor, to develop a minimum maintenance program to keep the green from deteriorating during the closure period.

Bowls Canada (BCB):
• All Canadian Championships for 2020 have been cancelled
• BCB is waiving fees for 2020 ($15.50 per member)
